. >>> so more now on our top story of the day, maybe the week. the latest on the jobs numbers out from the labor department, the unemployment rate unexpectedly, quite unexpectedly, actually, falling to 7.8 last month. that's first time that it dropped below 8% since president obama took office. on top of that, employers added 14,000 jobs during september. the expectations were around 110,000. and so the numbers that were really lousy back in the summer were also revised upward too. it is a bitf an icing on the cake story. the employers added 86,000 more jobs in july and in august than the department had initially estimated. before i go into more than that, more on that, i want to jump over to the president. he's live on the stump now in fairfax, virginia, at george mason university. clearly a friendly crowd, not only behind him, but in front. let's listen to what he has to say. perhaps he'll talk about jobs. >> thank you. thank you so much! thank you. thank you. everybody have a seat. have a seat. thank you. well, it is good to be here. i am so p
